Is my profile suitable for applying to study in Canada for a Master's/Bachelor's?
Yes, your profile is suitable for applying to master's programs in Canada.

Yes, you are eligible to apply for studies in Canada with your current profile. Your four-year bachelor's degree in Computer Science meets the basic academic requirement for Canadian graduate programs.
- 20 backlogs: Many Canadian institutions accept applicants with backlogs, but policies vary by university and program. Focus on programs known to be more flexible with backlog history.
- English proficiency: Some universities may accept alternative tests (like Duolingo or PTE) or offer waivers if your previous education was in English.
You will also need a letter of acceptance from a Designated Learning Institution (DLI) and proof of funds for your study permit.
It depends. Your four-year bachelor's degree with 65.33% meets the basic academic eligibility for many Canadian master's programs. However, your IELTS overall score of 6.0 (with Reading 5.5 and Writing 5.5) is below the typical minimum for most universities, which usually require at least 6.5 overall and no band below 6.0.
To improve your chances:
- Retake IELTS and aim for 6.5 overall with at least 6.0 in each section.
- Some universities may offer conditional admission with extra English courses, but this is not guaranteed.
